In the K Means Cluster platform, select the Self Organizing Map option from the Method list in the Iterative Clustering Control Panel.
Figure 14.8 Self Organizing Map Option in the Control PanelĀ
Some of the options on the panel are described in Iterative Clustering Report. The remaining options are described below.
N Rows
The number of rows in the cluster grid.
N Columns
The number of columns in the cluster grid.
Bandwidth
Specifies the effect of neighboring clusters for predicting centroids. A smaller bandwidth results in putting more weight on closer clusters.
Advanced Controls
The following advanced controls are available:
Maximum Iterations
The maximum number of iterations of the convergence stage of the EM algorithm.
